Infos on the Real game Direction? WHEN?!

[AlexNiculaie]

Again, i'm not asking for detailed things that could change, but i'd like to know the basic foundations...

Saying how many partecipant or how will be structured the PvP for example (world vs world, guild vs guild), need tweaks?

Except, all the things you are wanting info on CAN be up for change. Considering that they have said PvP will not be in at the start, what makes you think it's such a big priority that they have concrete info to give out? We aren't even in Beta yet, you're jumping the gun a bit.

Ok so every PvE encounter can change, any pvp thing can change, housing can change, chocobo raising can change..

Is there anything already finalized ? And with finalized i just mean the idea at least.

I don't think that word means what you think it means . . . .

They have lots of ideas, but you are demanding stuff they really can't give as anything more than vague generalities, which is what they have been doing since alpha. You're just going to have to put on your big boy pants and wait. You aren't likely to see more stuff until Beta starts, and even then it is likely to be videos like those given in alpha.

It seems like you're really into the idea of PVP so idk, maybe you would like other games better. /shrug

I said many times before that i don't care for PvP , but i care for the success of the game, and nowadays, a game without a good PvP will not be succesfull... (expecially if it will be absent at the release... )

Maybe I am naive but I tend to disagree. I think we are a different breed. I don't think we have to have everything the other games have to be successful. I don't believe that PVP is a make-or-break deal for (at least current) XIV'ers.

That being said, Yoshi said we will have PVP, he said he likes PVP. I think that's enough for now. New people starting on the new worlds will have plenty to do before they have a "need" to introduce it. jmo

(sorry I missed that you don't care for pvp, I just saw you mention it alot) I could care less if it comes and can't imagine myself ever participating, but as with many things, just because I don't care for it doesn't mean it shouldn't exist

It depends on what you're looking for in an mmo. Those who play mmos don't just play them for pvp. Some play for story. Some play because they like to grind. Some play because they like the social aspects of the game. Some games have more of some aspects and less (or none) of others. The ones they have more of tell what kind of players they're trying to draw in. If you're looking for a fight with other players, don't stop here. Please, keep walking. lol SE is NOT going to focus heavily on pvp even if they put it into the game. This game caters to a different kind of player. And how well it caters to that kind of player will determine it's success.

Guys, even if their job is not finished yet, they had already planned it. They have ideas and information about how A Realm Reborn will look. Releasing 500x300 screenshots for sure it's not a good way to keep us calm! :P

Exactly, we all know everything it's work in progress, but they could give us the ideas that they have.


"-We can't give too much details, but raids will work in this way, they will have 3 difficiculty etc."

"-We are still finalizing the balance of PvP, but we can say that it will be realm vs realm on large scale 100 vs 100 that will involve castle conquest and vehicles like catapult"

Is this asking too much?
